The hardest decision we have ever had to make

Ok, so we have made what is probably the hardest decision we have ever had to make. We talked to Neonatologists, Pediatric Surgeons, Perineonatoligists, and multiple others. After talking to each of them, it just led to more confusion. So we just sat down and wrote a list of pros and cons of delivering at each place. That didn't really help either, then yesterday, the Surgeon personally called me to follow up with us. He just wanted to let me know he had talked to the Neonatologist and they had set up a plan to go to Portland and hone up on the lastest procedures for CDH. He told me that no matter our decision they were going to go to Portland anyways. After that phone call I feel that we had a lot of questions answered. So after talking to Jim, we decided to put our trust in the Doctors here in Boise. I had an uneasy feeling the whole time, just thinking of having to go to SFO. My mind has been put to ease for the time being. So this is a decision that we are going to make and stick to. Now we just need to ask for prayers for the doctors at this point and time. I am confident that they can do the necessary procedures. Now we just get to stay here and wait for little peanut to arrive. I am now 30 weeks, so it is getting closer everyday.

Lets hope that I don't have too much more information or any other excitement until I go into labor. I will keep you all up to date if anything else comes up.

Love to all,
Jaime
